Two compositions by Bernardo Latini based on ancient Catalonian tunes. Both of them were recorded during the 2020’s lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
“El Ball de Sant Ferriol”. This piece combines crazy scenes that allude to collective festivities, wild dance and celebrations at the pub. In each scene, “Sant Ferriol”, a legendary figure in Catalonia, an old highwayman that became a deity, hovers around. We thank him for his wine barrel that never gets empty.
“Sant Joan, Sant Martí”. A lullaby, the household chores in a rural setting and the prayer to the deities who should ensure the development of the child in the cradle, converge in this piece.
